                        Wednesday, July 13, 2016

  Mr. MARCHANT. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Allan Weegar, 
City Manager to the City of Hurst, Texas, on his retirement after 
thirty-five years of dedicated service.
  Allan's distinguished career with the city began in 1981 as assistant 
to the City Manager. Soon after, Allan was promoted to Assistant City 
Manager of Administration. In 1997, Allan was selected to serve as City 
Manager, a role he would excel at for nearly twenty years.
  While serving his community, Allan has become a member of the 
International City Management Association, Texas City Management 
Association, Northeast Leadership Forum, and is a past-president of the 
North Texas City Management Association. In addition, Allan currently 
serves on the board of directors for Texas City Management Association, 
Northeast Transportation System and the Hurst-Euless-Bedford Economic 
Development Foundation.
  Allan's vision and dedication to his city have brought forward a 
period of economic development and productivity which has revitalized 
Hurst and the surrounding communities. Allan's dedication to providing 
excellent customer service to the citizens he serves has set a 
tremendous example for those in public service. Allan has established a 
culture of leadership and development within the City of Hurst that has 
driven its prosperity and success over the last two decades.
  Mr. Speaker, it is a pleasure to recognize Allan and his outstanding 
service to the City of Hurst. I ask all of my distinguished colleagues 
to join me in congratulating Allan Weegar on his well-deserved 
retirement.
